Prompted by a random attack that occurred when I was a teenager where I found myself defenseless, I discovered Krav Maga later in life.  I only wish that I had known about it then.  It’s the most practical means of self-defense that exists. 

I’ve trained in Krav Maga for 16 years under the leaderships of Miki Eras and Philippe Glikman.  Anyone can benefit, especially women.  Krav Maga not only teaches you practical self-defense techniques, but it increases your fitness, strength, and confidence.

I’m forever grateful to the grandmaster Imi Lichtenfeld who founded the Krav Maga self-defense system.


Breathtaking true story set against the volatile events of the Nazi invasion of Europe, and Imi Lichtenfeld’s escape to Palestine in an overcrowded riverboat.  His journey should have lasted a month, but it took several years with a struggle to survive. What drove Imi to create the world’s most efficient and effective self-defense system, called Krav Maga?
